How does the phrase, I will be still, make you feel?

Let’s Journey Together and spend a Moment with Father. I’m Linda Goldfarb, and I want to encourage and inspire your walk with the Lord. For more encouragement, please visit LindaGoldfarb.com. I’m so glad you’re here.

I struggle to be still. Yet, I so need to be still. How about you?

Too much noise.
Too many distractions.
Too much chaos.
Too many daily options.
Too much for too long—drains me.

My clarity wains.
My discernment becomes clouded.
My energy drains.

If anyone needs to be still, it is me.

And it doesn’t come as a surprise that Father asks us, asks me, to be still.

“Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among nations, I will be exalted in the earth” (Psalm 46:10 ESV)!

Being still and taking time to know God replenishes my mind, body, and soul.

To rest, to be still—is a sanctuary to me.

I’m able to breathe deeply when I’m still.
How about you? When are you choosing to be still before God?

Take a moment. Close your eyes.

Breathe in deep, letting the air fill your lungs, and holding your breath. Then, slowly let out your breath through your mouth, and as your lungs empty (eyes still closed), thank God for the air you breathe. Repeat slowly as you are led, Thanking God for different aspects of your life, even the struggles. 

I desire to be still.
I choose to be still.
I will be still.

Let’s journey together. 

Abba Daddy, thank You for calling me into an intimate relationship with You.
I exalt You. I praise You. I lift You high.
You are my God. You are my Lord.
I long to serve You in all things.
Fill me with Your Spirit.
Let my breath be one with You.
Help me to be still and to know You are God.
Hallelujah.

Do not merely listen to the word and so deceive yourselves; do what it says. James 1:22

May YHWH bless you, keep you, and guide you in all you do. Until next time, this is Linda Goldfarb, and I’m so glad we are on this journey together with Father.
